Hi again.
As a beginner, I was lent a little lathe and a multistar duplex chuck. I got on really well with this chuck, and produced some nice bits.
However it went back to it's owner and left me chuckless... having little money at the time I bought a second hand rp3000 from E-Bay.
I tried it today after having it a while and am distressed big time! in 7 hours I produced nothing as the wood was not running true. no matter how many times I adjusted the chuck and the jaws it just was not working. it wobbled all over the place.
Are they known for being bad, or was my first good turnings a fluke!
